Be an Art Maker

Our Art Makers range in age from 17 to 80 years, with a wide range of disabilities and additional support needs. We can create a personal programme of creative workshops and training tailored to your needs.

On this page you can find out about our different workshops for people with disabilities, how much they cost and how to contact us for more information.

Discover your talents

There are a diverse range of different workshops to choose from at the Centre, from jewellery and printed textiles to fitness and horticulture. We will support you to discover your talents, put them into practice and realise your full potential.

Art Makers not only have access to the varied workshop experiences and training facilities available every weekday, but you can also attend evening events and weekend social activities. Over 170 Art Makers access the Centre each week so there’s a whole group of potential friends to meet.

A lot of my friends are here at the Centre. It's sociable and fun. I enjoy being creative."

Vicky, Art Maker
